Say hello to Eric and welcome back my extraordinary intern, Max A. What would we do without Partners, interns, mentors and friends? Sooooo excited to have Max back!! Some of you may know Max was my Summer intern. Than left to go back to College. He knew I had been working on a big charity event in LA and was pretty worried about the turnout. Max a Student at U of A actually got himself to LA to attend. I think that’s the sweetest and kindest acts. By the end of the night, after a very exciting and emotional evening I told Max he had to come back to work with me. And he agreed !! And I didn’t even have to wait til summer! It’s only Winter Break. Thank you Max! And thank you Eric .. the Mortgage Guy for meeting with us to help me with marketing. We ended up in Fremont. Half way between San Jose and Oakland. Always grateful. . . . #maxainternship #internshipwithdebbi #drivingmissdaisy #meeting #marketing #planning #goals #preparingforthenewyear #2018goals #partners #mentors #interns #family #gratitude #grateful #partnerships #realestate #startups (at Cantaritos Restaurant and Bar)

And just like that, Christmas has come and gone. With a little under a week left before the beginning of 2022, what will you try to change in the New Year? I think resolutions are not the way to go, because we set up ourselves for failure I think for me I want to continue pushing myself to be a better photographer, working with new people, expanding my portfolio. I want to make this investment worth it. - #photocember #photocember2021 #afterchristmas #preparingforthenewyear #newyear #2022 #photography #photographylovers #photographylife #photographyfriends #photographer #photographersofinstagram #retrospective #lookingtothefuture #shotwithsony #minoltalenses #35mmphotography #reflections #nightphotography #nightshoot #cameralens #txphotographer #lubbocktxphotographer #zmphotography (at Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CX8wgSFOQoh/?utm_medium=tumblr
